Möbius convolutions and the Riemann hypothesis
نویسنده
چکیده
The well-known necessary and sufficient criteria for the Riemann hypothesis of M. Riesz and of Hardy and Littlewood, based on the order of certain entire functions on the positive real axis, are here embedded in a general theorem for a class of entire functions, which in turn is seen to be a consequence of a rather transparent convolution criterion. Some properties of the convolutions involved sharpen what is hitherto known for the Riesz function.

Bounding sums of the Möbius function over arithmetic progressions
Let M(x) = ∑ 1≤n≤x μ(n) where μ is the Möbius function. It is well-known that the Riemann Hypothesis is equivalent to the assertion that M(x) = O(x1/2+ ) for all > 0. There has been much interest and progress in further bounding M(x) under the assumption of the Riemann Hypothesis. In 2009, Soundararajan established the current best bound of M(x) √ x exp ( (log x)(log log x) ) (setting c to 14, ...
متن کاملEvaluation of some integrals of sums involving the Möbius function
Integrals of sums involving the Möbius function appear in a variety of problems. In this paper, a divergent integral related to several important properties of the Riemann zeta function is evaluated computationally. The order of magnitude of this integral appears to be compatible with the Riemann hypothesis, and furthermore the value of the multiplicative constant involved seems to be the small...
متن کاملA Matrix Inequality for Möbius Functions
The aim of this note is the study of an integer matrix whose determinant is related to the Möbius function. We derive a number-theoretic inequality involving sums of a certain class of Möbius functions and obtain a sufficient condition for the Riemann hypothesis depending on an integer triangular matrix. We also provide an alternative proof of Redheffer’s theorem based upon a LU decomposition o...
متن کاملSome Identities Involving Convolutions of Dirichlet Characters and the Möbius Function
In this paper we present some identities involving convolutions of Dirichlet characters and the Möbius function, which are related to a well known identity of Ramanujan, Hardy and Littlewood.
متن کاملMultiplicative Functions in Short Intervals
We introduce a general result relating “short averages” of a multiplicative function to “long averages” which are well understood. This result has several consequences. First, for the Möbius function we show that there are cancellations in the sum of μ(n) in almost all intervals of the form [x, x+ψ(x)] with ψ(x)→∞ arbitrarily slowly. This goes beyond what was previously known conditionally on t...
